Kansas City is getting a lively new reason to head downtown as Mimosa Fest comes to KC Live! on Saturday, August 29, 2026.
The daytime event is scheduled from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and will bring together specialty mimosas, live entertainment, DJs, games and photo opportunities in the heart of the Power & Light District.
For locals looking to make the most of a late summer Saturday, Mimosa Fest is shaping up to offer a mix of brunch vibes and downtown entertainment.
Eight Specialty Mimosas Planned for the Event
One of the main attractions will be a lineup of eight specialty mimosa varieties, giving guests plenty of options beyond the classic orange juice and sparkling wine combination.
The featured selections include Juicy Peach, Tequila Sunrise, Watermelon, Crush, Creamsicle, Redneck, Mimosa Margarita and the Manmosa.
The variety gives the event a festival style feel, with guests able to sample different flavors while enjoying the entertainment throughout the afternoon.
DJs, Entertainment and Games Add to the Downtown Experience
Mimosa Fest is expected to be more than a typical brunch outing.
The event will feature DJs and live entertainment, along with games and photo opportunities designed to keep the atmosphere active throughout the day.
KC Live! has become a familiar gathering spot for concerts, watch parties and large public events, and the August 29 gathering adds a daytime social event to the venue’s late summer calendar.
A Different Kind of Saturday in Downtown Kansas City
While Kansas City is known for its packed sports and entertainment calendar, Mimosa Fest offers a different type of weekend outing.
Instead of an evening concert or a traditional night out, the event is built around a daytime experience where groups can meet up, enjoy entertainment and spend an afternoon in the Power & Light District.
The timing could also make it an appealing option for people looking to start their Saturday downtown before moving on to other plans later in the day.
What to Know Before Heading to KC Live!
Mimosa Fest is scheduled for Saturday, August 29, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at KC Live! in downtown Kansas City.
The event is restricted to guests 21 and older. Those planning to attend should check the official event information for ticket details, entry requirements and any updates before heading downtown.
With specialty drinks, music, games and a full afternoon of entertainment on the schedule, Mimosa Fest could become one of the more unusual ways to spend a Saturday in Kansas City before summer comes to a close.
